The actor had been ill for over a year Olumide Bakare, we hear, died this early this morning, Saturday, April 22, 2017 after a lengthy heart and lung illness which kept him confined at the University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan.

“Yes, it is true Olumide Bakare is dead. He died on his way to his hospital. When I called his number, his personal assistant picked his phone and told me he was dead. That’s how much I can say for now,” Balogun is quoted as saying.
